Words & Pictures
Photographers o1en debate what words can and can’t do for photographs and vice versa. Cap)ons should add to the photograph rather than simply repeat it in words. Cap)ons are only one way words and images work together.

The Bowery in two inadequate descrip4ve systems, Martha Rosler, 1974–75
“The Bowery, in New York, is an archetypal skid row. It has been much photographed, in works veering between outraged moral sensi)vity and sheer slumming spectacle. Why is the Bowery so magne)c to documentarians? It is no longer possible to evoke the camouflaging impulses to “help” drunks and down-‐and-‐outers or “expose” their dangerous existence.”

Abul Thona Baraka Eric Godesman and Hope For Children, Ethiopia -‐ 2006
“I have often seen images from these projects that undercut the good intentions of the projects’ initiators by falling back into the old stereotypes and power dynamics that the collaborative process intends to avoid. There are questions like: Who is editing this material? Where is it being shown? For what purpose? ”
